#DDay80 - one day to go. #DDay was the successful allied invasion of the beaches of Normandy on 6 June 1944. More than 61,000 British personnel landed in northern Europe as part of the major military operation that helped bring an end to the Second World War.

This week we will mark 80 years since D-Day, which saw the launch of Operation Overlord and the beginning of the fight to liberate north-west Europe from German occupation. Mme Arlette Gondrée was just 4 yrs old when her parents cafe became the first building liberated on D-Day⬇️

Arlette Gondrée was just four years old when British troops entered her family's cafe in Normandy in June 1944. Her father served them from an alcohol collection he'd kept hidden from the Germans, starting a champagne tradition for British veterans that continues today. #DDay80
